Isn't the 992 pretty much the same engine as the 991.2? I've not driven that model so don't know how the first turbo non-turbo 911 sounds.
I think the 992 has the same engine but they tuned the sound ... probably like they did with the 718, the 4 cylinder to me doesn't sound like a typical 4 cylinder, it has a nice growl to it.

The Boxster msrp is $75k, the selling price is $70k ... are you saying the msrp is low or high ?

Also the big picture is 911's lose a ton of money in the first few years but if I went with the 992 it wouldn't be about it holding better resale, I already know I'd keep it for a number of years, the only question in regards to resale on the Boxster/Cayman is if I am uncomfortable in it and want to dump it in 6 months.
I am not concerned if I love it and keep it for a 2 to 3 years what the resale it.
